François is one of the absolute first developers to join the GeoNetwork opensource project back in 2004 if I remember well. Since that moment he has never tired to take GeoNetwork to a higher level. He's responsible for about a third of the total commits to the project, an endless row of new proposals and experiments.

definitely seconded (if I can without being a charter member myself)!

We shouldn't forget that OpenSource software cannot be without people
actually writing it!

Best regards,
Andreas
